 OK I will answer my own question. 
(Amazing how going for a bike ride, leaving the PC and coming back to it later clears the brain, even at my age!!) 
  
I have found a way of doing this with the BarsSince function: 
  
BaseIndex = "XAO";
  rs =RelStrength("BaseIndex"); MA_rs= EMA(rs,30);
  Cond1 = rs > MA_rs; Cond2 = Cross(rs, MA_rs); 
 Filter = Cond1 AND BarsSince(Cond2) > 5 ;
  AddColumn(BarsSince(Cond2) >= 5; 
 Plot(rs,"RS",colorGreen,1); Plot(EMA(rs,30),"ema RS",colorBlue,1);
  
Regards to all.

 Greetings All..
  I want to explore for stocks where the Relative strength is currently greater than its own EMA for more than the last 5 *sequential* periods.
  So far I am using the following filter… Filter = Sum(Cond1,10) > 5 ; as in…
  BaseIndex = "XAO";
  rs =RelStrength("BaseIndex"); MA_rs= EMA(rs,30);
  Cond1 = rs > MA_rs;
  Filter = Sum(Cond1,10) > 5 ;
  AddColumn(RelStrength("BaseIndex"),"RS vs XAO",1.2); AddColumn(EMA(RelStrength("BaseIndex"),30),"EMA30 RS", 1.2); AddColumn(Sum(Cond1,10),"days over",1.2);
  Plot(rs,"RS",colorGreen,1); Plot(EMA(rs,30),"ema RS",colorBlue,1);
  PROBLEM: this gives me total no. of times Cond1 has occurred within the last 10 periods, even if the condition does not apply at the last bar, and only *totals* the number of times this has occurred, and they
 may or may not be sequential/continuous.
  GOAL: I want to be able to explore for stocks where the Relative Strength is *currently* greater than its own EMA for more than say 5 continuous/sequential periods, and then rank them according to those that outperformed for the longest.
  I NEED: AFL code for a filter that returns shares where the cond1 has been true for > 5 sequential periods and is still true at the moment.
  What functions in AFL code can I use here?
  TIA
